This week the girls are back for a proper platter and a natter — the kind of catch-up that goes absolutely everywhere.

Gemma shares pregnancy updates as baby’s arrival gets closer, while Sinead reflects on life with a three-month-old and how the newborn trenches finally start to ease. From sleepless nights and breastfeeding realities to hemorrhoids, hospital bags and postpartum essentials (yes… including the fanny freezer), nothing is off limits.

The girls also dive into their Hot Takes of the Week, including why every friendship group should have a “nesting day” before a baby arrives.

They chat about:

• navigating early motherhood and sleep deprivation

• the importance of community and helping new mums

• friendships, showing up for each other and building your “village”

• the pressure around marriage and babies

• parenting styles and when others step in with your kids

Plus the usual chaos and oversharing.

If you like chaotic honesty, reality, and two friends oversharing then grab a cuppa this one’s for you.

This week the girls are back saying too much!

Join Sinead and Gemma as they talk chaotic wedding antics, getting scammed by Model Agencies in England, PPROM anxiety updates, hospital bag prep, and mentally surviving the waiting game.

They also get into:

• Parking rage and why pregnant women deserve priority spaces everywhere

• The debate of whether friends should charge friends for babysitting

• And why “everyone wants a village, but nobody wants to be a villager” might be the hot take of the week

The girls leave you with a teaser for what's to come for them spilling the tea on an all new pod and they want your input in what's next!! Any ideas for names drop them in the comments and there might even be a prize for the chosen name!

This weeks episode is very different… because Gemma’s waters unexpectedly broke early.

We’re recording in pyjamas, on bed rest, during an actual sleepover while navigating a real-life pregnancy plot twist.

Gemma shares the full story of being diagnosed with PPROM (Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes), the hospital visit, the moment everything changed, and what happens next as baby Murray may be arriving sooner than planned.

Between the chaos, tears, laughter, and hormone-fuelled hot takes, we talk honestly about pregnancy scares, motherhood realities, friendships showing up when it matters most, and how humour sometimes carries you through the hardest moments.

This episode is raw, unfiltered, emotional and very us.

If you’re pregnant and listening, this episode is your reminder that pregnancy doesn’t always follow the plan.

Information, support, and community matter more than perfection, please lean on professionals to get everything checked over don’t put off if you think you are making a big deal of something or unsure.

This week on Sinead & Gemma Say Too Much, we are back with another chaotic catch-up full of laughs, honest chats, and the kind of conversations you only have with your best friend. We take a deep dive into postpartum and answer your listener questions with nothing but raw honesty as always. 

From navigating new mum life and the realities nobody prepares you for, to hormones and the random tangents we somehow always end up on, this episode is equal parts hilarious and heartfelt. Expect unfiltered stories, relatable moments, and plenty of “did we really just say that?” energy.

Whether you’re here for the laughs, the honesty, or just need something that feels like a chat with your friends, we’ve got you.

Grab a cuppa, settle in, and enjoy as we say too much once again.
